IJCSLY Single with "Don't Be Messin' Round" bonus track [Discussion]

[0o0jackie0o0]

Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy yy

[0o0jackie0o0]

"Don't Be Messin Around" is being released as a B Side to the IJCSLU single.

I would prefer to have a new MJ track released as a standalone single, not hidden behind an old track that most fans already have on many different albums (BAD, HIStory, The Essential, Number Ones, King of Pop, Ultimate Collection).

So I have a question.

Which of these options to you prefer?

Would you prefer DBMA to be released:

a) In it's original state as left by MJ (i.e. probably not complete).
b) In a completed state (finished by the estate), similar to how MJ may have done it if he was around (suitable for adult radio like "This Is It" e.g. BBC Radio 2).
c) In a completed state, suitable for success on youth radio and in the charts (i.e. similar to Elvis "A Little Less Conversation" remix).

I would hope for something that can become a worldwide radio and singles chart hit like the Elvis song but I'm interested to here what you guys think.

HMMM. Good question, from the little snippet we've heard, it doesnt sound like a song that would sound great remixed with some club hanger beat added so for that reason i'd go with option b) but c) would be nice in addition to b) if possible...

I can't wait !!!!

I think a single should contain all of the above: the original unfinished demo, a completed version (preferably completed by people who worked with Michael at the time, like Quincy Jones and Bruce Swedien) and a remix or more remixes.

UNTOUCHED LIKE A VIRGIN, please.

Or finished by Quincy Jones.

I honestly don't care what they do with the song. They can remix it, finish it or whatever...

BUT... release the original version too. That way fans get the 'actual Michael Jackson song' and whoever wants some fancy/possibly murdered and destroyed song get that too.

Gimme the original version and I'll be happy, I don't care about the other finished or remixes versions as long as I get the original version.

Ditto.

They can pretty much do as they please as long as it is RESPECTFUL & within MJ's boundaries....And also, as long as they release the original/demo version the way MJ left it.

I want it in its original state. I don't mind them finishing it, but if they do, then I want to hear the original as well, so I can know what comes from Michael and what was added without his approval. I'm still disappointed that we never got to hear the full version of the demo of "Another Day" that was leaked. It sounded better to me than the final version they put on the album.

After all the bullshit he said about Michael, I don't really want him to touch any of Michael's songs...

He is an old douche but he knows music and he knows how to make great music. And after all it's all about the music in my opinion.

Gimme the three versions, and a gin tonic please.
